The defense of adipose tissue against excess substrate-induced hyperthrophia: Immune system cell infiltration and arrested metabolic activity [PDF]
Obesity, the excessive accumulation of body fat, is a main defining feature of the metabolic syndrome, and overweight is often an early indication of the future severity and development of associated pathologies.

Adipose tissue aging is regulated by an altered immune system
Adipose tissue is a widely distributed organ that plays a critical role in age-related physiological dysfunctions as an important source of chronic sterile low-grade inflammation. Adipose tissue undergoes diverse changes during aging, including fat depot

The clock protein Cry regulates hepatic glucose metabolism. Here the authors show that SREBP1c, activated by insulin signalling after feeding, directly regulates Cry transcription at specific circadian time points, and that Cry represses hepatic glucose ...

Towards clinical translation of upscaled osteogenic grafts using human adipose tissue progenitors [PDF]
Tissue engineering is an emerging strategy in medical field that focuses on regeneration or replacement of lost or damaged tissue and organs. Most of the tissues in human body have no or limited self renewal and regeneration potential which decrease with

A combined transcriptomics and lipidomics analysis of subcutaneous, epididymal and mesenteric adipose tissue reveals marked functional differences [PDF]
Depot-dependent differences in adipose tissue physiology may reflect specialized functions and local interactions between adipocytes and surrounding tissues.

Autophagy in Adipose Tissue [PDF]
The possible involvement of the evolutionarily conserved process of autophagy (selfeating) in the pathogenesis of human diseases has been increasingly appreciated in recent years. However, at present, many fundamental questions remain to be answered before autophagy can be considered as a therapeutic target: The biological consequences of activating or
